This is a ROS 2 package to simulate the Boston Dynamics spot in webots. Spot is able to walk around, to sit, standup and lie down. We also attached some sensors on spot, like a kincet and a 3D laser. The world contains apriltags, a red line to test lane follower and soon objects for manipulation tasks.
- Tested for ubuntu 22.04
